Still safe

Hi all

I got a lot of concerned response about the bombings, and I feel well looked-after and taken care of. Thank you all for your concern. The city is back to normal today, and feels just as safe as it usually does, crazy, but normal. The experience really wasn't that traumatic for me--I was safely at home when it happened, and the reaction of the indians around me was so nonchalant I couldn't find myself more upset than they were, who were more directly affected. THe response here is not like it would be in America for something like this--either you don't really show much emotion, or you go out and kill some muslims. I'm glad that there was no killing of muslims, and people were very calm and accepting about it. No retaliation or riots or anything. I feel very safe walking around the city.

More later. I have a long post in me about arranged marrages, but I have no time to write it now.
Best
